John Alleman—the 52-year-old spokesman for the Heart Attack Grill in Las Vegas—has died of a heart attack. Alleman is the second Heart Attack Grill spokesman to die in as many years. The restaurant touts the country's "most caloric burger," though other factors may have played a role in Alleman's death.

The Pennsylvania native is survived by his only family, his brother Paul. Basso said Alleman had a genetic predisposition for cardiac problems, as both of his parents died of heart attacks in their 50s. [Las Vegas Sun]
